Laburpena

In this love story fou set in 1947, the social situation of the protagonists conditions their romantic relationship. The Spanish post-war environment is so repressive that the protagonist, Javier Zaldívar, an army captain who has just returned from a service in the Sahara, is strongly conditioned to establish a stable relationship with a love from the past, Luisa. The military establishment, in practice a large family where everyone knows each other, monitors the morality of its members and rejects any hint of weakness or deviation.
